Default I found a non slip pad for my foot pedal that works.

I have bought some, even made some but was never happy with them. I was at a retreat last week and someone spoke up about her foot pedal wouldn't stay put. Another person said get a pad like mine. She said watch it all day and see if it moves at all with me using it. She said she had carpet in her sewing room and it worked there too. We all declared it wonderful. LOL It is the Martelli non slip pad. I got it at Amazon using prime for $11.69 including shipping.

I just use a piece of shelf liner, solid under a piece of pad. It doesn't move. I tried it last week or so. Seems if I buy something specifically it never works.

I have them under both sewing machines and my serger. They also sell a sew machine pad to keep you sewing machine from moving or vibrating on a hard surface. They are all made out of the same material.

I love mine. I.ve had it about 2 years. It has started to slip a little, not much. I need to see about cleaning it. It has a lot of thread and dust on it.

Bummer! That's the brand I bought. They worked for a little while and then started sliding.
